"This collection is a timely, thought-provoking reflection on the social and cultural impacts of cyberspace and new media. I highly recommend it to scholars, teachers, students and indeed all those interested in new media and cyberculture." (M/C Reviews, September 11, 2010)
"Underscoring the larger socio-political, economic and cultural contexts of digital and new media cultures, this refreshingly diverse and interdisciplinary collection of scholarship offers a significant and timely contribution to the field of cyberculture studies."—Kristin Scott, George Mason University
"What are cybercultures? Today, this question can only be asked
and answered in the plural. The New Media and Cybercultures
Anthology gives us a broad and well-nigh definitive sampling of
reflections on how new technologies have changed our lives."
—Steven Shaviro, author of Connected, Or, What It
Means To Live in the Network Society
"It is obvious that screens, and what happens on them, are only
part of the story of new media in the early 21st century. These
texts, ambitiously brought together by Pramod K. Nayar, provide
some significant signposts for grasping the networks of flesh,
fiber and affect operating inside, outside and beyond the
screen."
—Ryan Griffis, University of Illinois,
Urbana-Champaign
"This collection gathers together interesting and important
essays which enable its readers to usefully and sensibly approach
to the studies of new media and cyberculture."
—Terri He, Kaohsiung Medical University and National
University of Kaohsiung, Taiwan
